Where’s Joseph McCarthy? Where’s Arthur Miller?

Why am I wondering about the whereabouts of these two folks, you ask. Well, there's a witch-hunt a-coming.

I just tried to "ping" my blog and was told I am blacklisted because my site includes "objectionable content". To quote Withnail and I, "What fucker said that?"

What is this ping that you speak of? How do I do this?

Oddly enough, I submitted my blog to Blogburst yesterday. After a 2 second review the first time, they invited me in. I followed their little instructions, covering my eyes while reading that they only accept "family-friendly (ie. no profanity), and completed the form. An hour later they email me saying "Whoo hoo, your in". At least they spent 20 minutes going over it again. So far, all blogburst has brought me is one right wing christian spam mail...

and *, I am the last person who would be voted "teacher's pet". I have sent Lucky 2 emails. The first asking to get humped, the second to say thanks. Both emails contained less than 4 sentences.(ps. I'm not swiping at you with claws, ha ha ha ;) )

You may be interested to know (though I'm sure it is old news to you) that Arthur Miller went to the Univ. of Michigan which is located in the town I blog from. There is talk of building a theater in his name.

Pinging is this thing you can do at BlogExplosion or at pingoat.com. It's a way or notifying several blog-nerd sites that yours has been updated. Dunno if it works, or even if it does what I just said. I just do it most days, but today I'm fucking objectionable apparently.

I left a comment at Lucky's post about your humping, too, CV.

If it's got anything to do with Americans, they have a very low "objectionable" threshhold. That is of course unless they want to bomb the shit out of another country that they don't like, then that is called "freedom".

I've been "whitelisted" again now. Best stop saying cunt and fuck, though, just to be on the safe side.

why is that the bad list is called "black" but the good list is called "white"

I don't know. But stormtroopers in Star Wars are bad and they're white. He's pretty progressive, George Lucas. And that was the '70s, man.

Welcome, Noah.
